kube-scheduler

Synopsis

The Kubernetes scheduler is a control plane process which assigns Pods to Nodes. The scheduler determines which Nodes are valid placements for each Pod in the scheduling queue according to constraints and available resources. The scheduler then ranks each valid Node and binds the Pod to a suitable Node. Multiple different schedulers may be used within a cluster; kube-scheduler is the reference implementation. See scheduling for more information about scheduling and the kube-scheduler component.

  1. kube-scheduler [flags]

Options

—add-dir-header
If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages
—address string     Default: “0.0.0.0”
DEPRECATED: the IP address on which to listen for the —port port (set to 0.0.0.0 for all IPv4 interfaces and :: for all IPv6 interfaces). See —bind-address instead.
—algorithm-provider string
DEPRECATED: the scheduling algorithm provider to use, this sets the default plugins for component config profiles. Choose one of: ClusterAutoscalerProvider | DefaultProvider
—alsologtostderr
log to standard error as well as files
—authentication-kubeconfig string
kubeconfig file pointing at the ‘core’ kubernetes server with enough rights to create tokenreviews.authentication.k8s.io. This is optional. If empty, all token requests are considered to be anonymous and no client CA is looked up in the cluster.
—authentication-skip-lookup
If false, the authentication-kubeconfig will be used to lookup missing authentication configuration from the cluster.
—authentication-token-webhook-cache-ttl duration     Default: 10s
The duration to cache responses from the webhook token authenticator.
—authentication-tolerate-lookup-failure     Default: true
If true, failures to look up missing authentication configuration from the cluster are not considered fatal. Note that this can result in authentication that treats all requests as anonymous.
—authorization-always-allow-paths stringSlice     Default: [/healthz]
A list of HTTP paths to skip during authorization, i.e. these are authorized without contacting the ‘core’ kubernetes server.
—authorization-kubeconfig string
kubeconfig file pointing at the ‘core’ kubernetes server with enough rights to create subjectaccessreviews.authorization.k8s.io. This is optional. If empty, all requests not skipped by authorization are forbidden.
—authorization-webhook-cache-authorized-ttl duration     Default: 10s
The duration to cache ‘authorized’ responses from the webhook authorizer.
—authorization-webhook-cache-unauthorized-ttl duration     Default: 10s
The duration to cache ‘unauthorized’ responses from the webhook authorizer.
—azure-container-registry-config string
Path to the file containing Azure container registry configuration information.
—bind-address ip     Default: 0.0.0.0
The IP address on which to listen for the —secure-port port. The associated interface(s) must be reachable by the rest of the cluster, and by CLI/web clients. If blank or an unspecified address (0.0.0.0 or ::), all interfaces will be used.
—cert-dir string
The directory where the TLS certs are located. If —tls-cert-file and —tls-private-key-file are provided, this flag will be ignored.
—client-ca-file string
If set, any request presenting a client certificate signed by one of the authorities in the client-ca-file is authenticated with an identity corresponding to the CommonName of the client certificate.
—config string
The path to the configuration file. The following flags can overwrite fields in this file:
—address
—port
—use-legacy-policy-config
—policy-configmap
—policy-config-file
—algorithm-provider
—contention-profiling     Default: true
DEPRECATED: enable lock contention profiling, if profiling is enabled
—experimental-logging-sanitization
[Experimental] When enabled prevents logging of fields tagged as sensitive (passwords, keys, tokens).
Runtime log sanitization may introduce significant computation overhead and therefore should not be enabled in production.

—show-hidden-metrics-for-version string
The previous version for which you want to show hidden metrics. Only the previous minor version is meaningful, other values will not be allowed. The format is <major>.<minor>, e.g.: ‘1.16’. The purpose of this format is make sure you have the opportunity to notice if the next release hides additional metrics, rather than being surprised when they are permanently removed in the release after that.
—skip-headers

—skip-log-headers
If true, avoid headers when opening log files
—stderrthreshold severity     Default: 2

The domain patterns also allow IP addresses, but IPs should only be used if the apiserver has visibility to the IP address requested by a client. If no domain patterns are provided, the names of the certificate are extracted. Non-wildcard matches trump over wildcard matches, explicit domain patterns trump over extracted names. For multiple key/certificate pairs, use the —tls-sni-cert-key multiple times. Examples: “example.crt,example.key” or “foo.crt,foo.key:*.foo.com,foo.com”.
—use-legacy-policy-config
